Oh lawd, I'm definitely not professional. :P I have problems with injuries, and there's a good chance I have osteoarthritis in my knees, so I'm physically incapable of keeping up with a professional company, unfortunately. I would have loved to dance for the Joffrey for a few years before beginning my teaching career. :/
As far as music, it's hard to describe. Especially for jazz, because that style of dance can be taken in so many directions. I'll just give you an example for each style of dance I do, haha.
Ballet or Pointe: This is a personal favorite of mine-

Tap: Sounds like it wouldn't fit tap, but trust me, I love it. xD

For "jazz funk"-

There's so many other variations of jazz, but those are the main ones I do. Anyway, continuing. xD
Hip Hop: I can do some mean choreography to more "pop-ish" artists like Beyonce, Destiny's Child, etc.

Or if it's more like hardcore hip hop-

I don't really do Acro a whole lot anymore, because all of my injuries kind of stunted my ability to contort myself like that, but pretty much anything instrumental goes well. I like to use Cirque du Soleil music.
For Modern, you can pretty much use anything, but I prefer instrumental. My favorite so far is the song we used for recital this year.

And last but not least, Lyrical. The music would be preferably slow, and it has to display great emotion. Some songs I like:

One of these days, I'll get around to filming my own choreography. I have little mini combinations in my head for almost all of these songs. I just need to stop being lazy and finish them. xD
If you can't tell, I love talking about dance. xD
Oh, and wolves and banjos a bonus? How about just banjos?
Pretty good for a lyrical-
